Very Nice! Not many Garnet interiors around. Probably one of the rarest color interiors. I have an 85 cj7 with same graphics and interior.
I'm in Thayer, Kansas. If it is close and I can help let me know.
I do have a couple of questions. The paint code is 4M which is charcoal metallic? I got a 1985 Jeep brochure, and charcoal metallic isn't listed as an option. The brochure also only lists the garnet interior available in the CJ-7 and not the Scrambler. Since this was AMC could this all have been special ordered?
Just about anything is possible with AMC. I was at Western Hills Jeepin 1973 the day they unloaded a blue Comando with a 401 in it straight fropm the factory. I craweled under it to confirm it. It was sold to Big Ed Kincle from Indiana.
Lets just say he needed the 401.How big was Big Ed, did he live up to his name?
I was.I looked for it for years.That Commando must have been a sweet rig
Oh wow, love that patina.
I almost bought an 85 CJ-7 that was 4M paint code. Only had about 45K on it back in 1992-93, but had more mechanical issues that I wanted at the time and I was looking for a hardtop. Back then one could be picky about finding CJ's.
My best friend growing up also had an 86 Renegade that was that color with orange stripes.
Awesome find. Can't wait to see you clean it up.
